Our Star!

Okay, you know that feeling of being so excited, proud, happy that you can hardly stand it?

That is how I felt when our little star stepped on stage! 

Our little sweetheart danced her heart out and stole the show!
(Nana thinks so!)
 

Of course, no camera's while on stage...

Photo shoot for the program!
Showcase Dances were
Shake Your Feathers and Talk About It~

Right after she came off stage!

  

 Little sis was so proud!

Oh my, our daughter, her mom was beside herself with pride!

She said that when she heard her song cue up, her chest could have burst.

She was so excited, proud, nervous... got tears in her eyes watching her come out.

Me too!!!

 Proud Nana!!!

Did you see my buttons fly off?

Oh the joy of seeing a granddaughter dance on stage...

The best!

Sniff-Sniff

Have a wonderful day!

Sprucing Up With Color~

I've just spruced up with a little color and it's still a work in progress...

With all the wood in our home, I want bright colors surrounding us-

I'm into Turquoise, Lime Green and Coral/Orange these days!!

Added some color to our leather sofa with Turquoise and Lime Green~

 

  Added these flowers behind the sofa to draw in some of the turquoise in the
Cowboy Painting in the above photograph~

 Turquoise Pottery on end table that is humpteen years old!
Character, right?

 Close up of a few pillows~

Fresh flowers on the breakfast table

MacKenzie-Childs Place Mats

Fresh Flowers on the Bar.

Just thought I'd show you a very
Simple Tablescape~

Bought this container at Hobby Lobby-
Added the flowers-
There's my color!

Joining Kim for...

Wow Us Wednesday! 

 I'm off for now!  Sprucing up calls!

Time Of Year...

Oh, I love how these precious flowers attract...

Hummingbirds and Butterflies~

I tried to get a great shot of them...did not happen!

I'll be working on getting a great shot today!

I'll be  dressed in Camouflage, my method of concealment!

Much Needed REDO!!!

Okay, I  had to do something to my utility/laundry room...

Because it is my office too! 

STARK WHITE

White is great for a laundry room.
Looking at the washer and dryer was not very pleasing.

I needed to warm it up a bit!
Add a little interest to this white box space!

Wanted it to be...

MY SPACE!

Take a look~

BEFORE...

AFTER

Used my initials that were used at my 60th~

See the strip that is on my old sink, it's printed duck tape!!

Check out this mop doll I found, isn't she cute?

The box with sunflower is wine carrier! I opened the top and added sunflowers!

 More photographs kids framed for my 60th~

The floral jug, found at Hobby Lobby.

I wanted a place to look up and see some treasures that  belonged to my precious daddy~

One of his many pair of 

COWBOY BOOTS 

One of his many...

COWBOY HATS

A photograph of him at the ranch.

The bluebonnets are in one of his coffee cups he had at at his law firm.

An angel to watch over him.

Dried yellow roses in the wire basket were from my 60th birthday party too.

 Up above my computer space~

I look up and see my family, up close and anytime!

 The floral painting and white vase of flowers, I bought at an antique store! 

The other things, Hobby Lobby~

I have all of my cookbooks in here too!

Remember the BIG 60 full of photographs for my 60th birthday?

Found a place for them!

SIX 

ZERO!

Floral boxes on the right, I bought an an antique store, love them!

The blossom box with yellow tulips, I had in my sun room.

The boxes on the left were gift boxes- love them too!

Here's my desk, computer and printer...a bit messy...

But...

Now it's a little bit warmer and not just a utility room!

My SPACE 

AND 

My OFFICE!

I don't do laundry!!!
